BETFAIR'S GRAND NATIONAL BETTING TIPS FOR DAY THREE

The third and final day of the 2009 Grand National at Aintree will deliver some seriously outstanding races with a number of the top names in English horseracing set to end the jumps season with a real bang. Karabak is a solid bet for the Mersey Novices Hurdle while Deep Purple has a real chance at the Maghull Novices Chase, especially if he gets some cooperation from the ground conditions. Sir Tantallus Hawk has been due for a while and I think that the Handicap Hurdle will be his moment. Of course, everybody is wondering about the winner of the Grand National Chase and that his partnership with Ruby Walsh has been officialised, I can't see any reason not to back My Will. Rambling Minster is a solid each-way option, but My Will just seems to have the class to take this one and Ruby will be gunning for a Gold Cup/Grand National double.
